He never fails to blow our minds with his lightning-fast stumping. Over the years, Dhoni has dazzled the opposition batters with his outstanding skills behind the stumps and he was at it again.
MS Dhoni Produced Lightning-Fast Stumping To Dismiss Shubman Gill
As Chennai Super Kings is taking on Gujarat Titans in the ongoing final clash of the Indian Premier League 2023 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, MS Dhoni dismissed the big fish – Shubman Gill with a lightning-fast stumping.
After two dropped catches by Deepak Chahar of Shubman Gill, who has been in sensational form in the ongoing season, CSK captain MS Dhoni joined hands with Ravindra Jadeja and got rid of the talented youngster.
Jadeja bowled a flat delivery on an off-stump line, Gill leaned forward to drive but the ball spun sharply. In the process, Gill’s back foot inadvertently slips out of the crease, and what happened was just magical. Dhoni was at his absolute best when he produced that lightning-fast stumping, that made Gill walk back to the pavilion with 39 runs off 20 balls, including 7 fours. Dhoni was exuding confidence when Jadeja asked to confirm the dismissal.
Harsha Bhogle Made A Shocking Revelation
Meanwhile, fans on social media went berserk after the magical stumping by Dhoni. From cricketers and experts around the world to fans, everyone took to their social media to hail the brilliant glovework by MSD.
